Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues, 

The data sharing between charging/discharging electric vehicles and power systems is important for a successful interaction of the vehicles with the grid. Information exchange is also needed at the design stage, as well as in the control of the electric vehicle motor and battery system. Moreover, data resolution, security, and sustainability aspects need to be taken into account. In the near future, we will likely see different types of electrified vehicles on the market (trucks, cars, boats, aircraft, autonomous vehicles, etc.), new designs in propulsion systems, and smart charging strategies (cable charging, wireless charging, battery swapping, V2G, high-power charging, etc.) for different applications and in different environments (buildings, airports, construction sites, etc.).  

In this context, we welcome you to submit manuscripts in areas such as, but not limited to:

  • Data exchange between electric vehicles and power systems.
  • Data sharing when implementing different charging strategies.
  • Interaction between the motor and the battery system with respect to, e.g., regenerative charging.
  • Vehicle-to-grid (V2G), vehicle-to-everything (V2X), etc., including pros and cons. Smart charging strategies, algorithms, and charging standards.
  • Energy system modelling, including, e.g., renewable energy systems, FEM or real-time simulations, and experimental work.
  • Energy management systems.
  • Security and safety aspects.
  • Equipment and measurement systems for vehicle-grid interaction.

This paper describes an effective operating strategy for electric vehicles (EVs) in a hybrid facility that leverages renewable energy sources. The method is to enhance the profit of the wind–thermal–EV hybrid plant while maintaining the grid frequency (fPG) and energy level of the EV battery storage system. In a renewable-associated power network, renewable energy producers must submit power supply proposals to the system operator at least one day before operations begin. The market managers then combine the power plans for the next several days based on bids from both power providers and distributors. However, due to the unpredictable nature of renewable resources, the electrical system cannot exactly adhere to the predefined power supply criteria. When true and estimated renewable power generation diverges, the electrical system may experience an excess or shortage of electricity. If there is a disparity between true and estimated wind power (TWP, EWP), the EV plant operates to minimize this variation. This lowers the costs associated with the discrepancy between actual and projected wind speeds (TWS, EWS). The proposed method effectively reduces the uncertainty associated with wind generation while being economically feasible, which is especially important in a deregulated power market. This study proposes four separate energy levels for an EV battery storage system (EEV,max, EEV,opt, EEV,low, and EEV,min) to increase system profit and revenue, which is unique to this work. The optimum operating of these EV battery energy levels is determined by the present electric grid frequency and the condition of TWP and EWP. The proposed approach is tested on a modified IEEE 30 bus system and compared to an existing strategy to demonstrate its effectiveness and superiority. The entire work was completed using the optimization technique called sequential quadratic programming (SQP). Full article
